Thrax makes a very good point on the relevancy of Space law to MRP. Its kinda silly how unhelpful it is in its current state. Hell, with the previous set of MRP rules, it was literally bait and encouraged breaking the RP rules. If I won I would love to look closely at this with Thrax and other secur...

this is so wholesome 100

Was I one of the 2/100 jannies?

Big fan of Roleplay rule 10. "There are a great many gimmicks, dramas and plans that result in excellent stories beloved by many, and part of idea of the higher roleplay environment is to make space for this to happen. Many of these experiences fade with replication however – constant repetitio...

Again, I feel like you are judging "people" on mrp as a whole based on the actions of a couple people. I am still doubtful that all the people who were eager to become skeletons, are the same people you asked to be androids. We are not a monolith.

I am generally pretty satisfied with my experience on MRP. If I had to nitpick somethings, I wish we could have even less of the playing to win mindset, but I'm not sure that would even be a rules thing and feels more like a cultural type deal. Personally when I play security, I'm all about that cat...

Also -1 on your appeals idea- Probably dropping that tbh, everyone has told me its a bad idea and I'd rather admit that than die on a pretty silly hill. headmin workload is presumably the problem with response times, I don't think adding something else to the docket will really help much of anythin...

Unironically hoping they get host-vote

Very true, love warops on MRP for being just an "Alright you crazy kiddos, go ahead, you can powergame now:)"

My favourite crew role is medborg - they're much better at the job than humans are. I didn't know you were a real one like that. Based af. For me its obviously Ai. But since that's a given, I'll spill my favorite carbon role lately: Head of Personnel. I treat it like the Captain's babysitter and it...

Not disputing that right. But are these gamers the exact same people that refused android?

GPeckman wrote: ↑Sat Aug 19, 2023 6:26 pm I honestly have to agree that Manuel feels less about more roleplay and more about metacliques, and I have one specific round to illustrate my point.

Do you have the logs? I'd love to take a peak

Seperately, "don't suicide to prevent traitors from completing their objective" should really just be a generic rule and not Asimov-specific. It's being a dick, and there's nothing a traitor who went to the effort of assaulting the AI Core can do to stop you from redtexting them like this...

Well for asimov at least, law 3 has been usually treated as tied law 1 under the premise: “I cannot prevent harm if I am dead”

4. I want there to be policy regarding the construction of new Ai, because I personally have had, and witnessed many others have their rounds as Ai ruined over this. After a conversation with Justice12354, I find it necessary to elaborate on this one. What I want is to protect the roundstart Ai fro...

But I want to shove-stun you while you try and deliver a serious talking point...

Tg will survive a week without me shitposting in Admin-bus and other various serious channels But yeah pretty much the only reasonable thing to do is inform the admin team. If the other two are already away its not like you can wrap up anything anyhow. I guess you could prepare stuff for the other ...

i hope they do the vc debates again, i dont think ches could host them since theyre running
I keep poking the events team but I don't think anyone is going to do them. I'll just jab even harder.

Lets do them in game in character like someone said in chatter (was that you?)

I traded away my Malf once for compleeeetely normal Malf

Spoiler:

Personally I accept most TC trades that have ideas and aren't just straight antag trades.

Also doublepost, the lack of precedents set the foundation for future headmin terms to pile on even more precedents of their own, ruining silicon policy all over again but in a brand new way! The ride never ends. This is fair. I think this is a pretty good foundation to be standing on. Maybe this t...

Ties it into their lawset and makes the policy addition feel less arbitrary. So we would be ok with them doing so on a lawset basis? I'm not sure I agree with the extra effort an antagonist would have to go to, to keep the sassy, screaming pocket voice from killing itself if it isn't on asimov. &qu...

Goals are solid "Server Rule 1 applies when interacting with silicons. Going out of your way to seriously negatively impact or end the round for silicons with little IC justification is against the rules." This is cool and all, and I get we want to keep things simple and brief, but I feel ...

How can we be both too nice and an aloof assortment of metagangs/grudgers. These are conflicting ideas.

I'm with Cheshify on the shuttle thing. I would love it if we enforced some more stringent self-antag rules on the shuttle cockpit, why does that restricted area in particular always end up a free-for-all? In terms of headmin activity, I think this term was very satisfactory for me personally. If I ...

I mean if there was a GOOD change that should happen, like, last term we had "Hey we should allow streaming" as a topic which was why I wanted Rave in, since that was an obvious good idea, then it would be good. But look at the changes being proposed. "Delete felinids" "For...

Hello, Headmin Candidates! I got a few questions for all y'all that have been floating around in my head. Hello, and of course! 1. Some candidates have floated the idea of disabling felinids as a selectable race. What are your thoughts on this, and how do you feel about the idea? If you support or ...

I think its difficult coming off a term who did so well(In my opinion) The rest of us maybe feel like we need to bring something to the table. Because if all you w...

I am certainly not going to be stubbornly attached to a bad idea if everyone is telling me it is. But again it would be only for minor issues and short length bans. We could leave it up to the banning admin, so that the workload doesn't fall onto the head-mins as well. I'm prodding around to see if ...

Pardon, I meant the Ai upload. There is a specific issue I aim to fix here: Captain or RD wants to upload their own custom, fun lawset to the Ai. This is good. Good faith interaction with Ai player and their mechanics, provides a break from the monotony of asimov every shift. However in order to wri...

Top 5 aint bad

In many cases, the headmin review system accomplishes very little for the person banned, even if it was successfully appealed. They still sit out of the game, for a good duration, they go through all that effort, but win very little in the end. It could easily be arranged that certain rule breaks/ba...

Defending themselves from a traitor? Good. Thats why you have baton and gun

Everything else, cringe. Play security if you want to play security. Not a head role where you can give yourself whatever access you want. You are expected to change IDs and assist the service people. Not hunt valids.

This is a good question. And while I'm not Oranges, I feel like its a little different than promising code changes. They're saying they'd like to work more closely with coders. So maybe its ok?

Bugsteps in along with the Kinneb rebalancing patch.

I’m forever skill issued. But yes I did turn it off in hopes of better performance

Guess where the hole is.PNG There is a hole in this hallway. I watched 3+ people fall into it crashing through to the deck below. Can you guess where it is? Every single tile in this 3 wide hallway west of the moth is safe, except for one. Hints: Its not a tile with any purple lines. There are no i...

this is a much stronger argument, thank you

Mm yes indeed its ok to break rarely enforced laws.

I would be a pretty upset if suddenly I was unqualified to come answer LRP tickets when no admins are on or Supportmins are pinged

I think the point is that the admin team is not divided. Despite what servers we do or do not play on a majority of the time. Immediately after I was candidated for example, Namelessfairy came along to show me things, despite me having never touched Terry at that point.

This is a very respectable and serious discussion. Anyways the Iain0 update dropped and I decided to do myself after all. The fourth guy got 1984'd so fast I didn't even get to make a card for them.

Why did NONE of them have PFP's...

The discrepancy is 'cause Timber had to do all the writing apparently lol

This update is wild, some of these weapons will need significant buffs before I personally would use them.

When I said in Admin channels "I'll run if you three screw up silicon policy, but I have faith that you wont," Kieth4 said to me "Man, have no faith honestly." Step 1. The Silicons I have nearly now over 600 hours of experience playing Ai, I have some very strong opinions on how ...
